Fun Ho! History

H. (Hec) E. Ramsey Limited - Wooden Toys

c.1939.
Portage Road, Auckland.
Ramsey's created a whole family of 'pull-a-long' wooden toys, the best known are surely Mary-Lou Doll and Buzzy- Bee, real icons of Kiwiana. About 1975 the mill caught fire and K.T.Lawson Ltd took over, and in 1977 H.E.Ramsey (1977) was formed.

Some of these may not have been manufactured by Ramsey. Any assistance in identification would be appreciated.
those who like something a little different, there are also a number of civilian folk to choose from.
